Photoshop Tutorial: "Gatsby" Art-Deco Poster Effect (Part 1 of 3)

Concept, photos, videos, examples, construction



How to get that "Gatsby" art-deco style poster effect. The tutorial is 3 parts, but the overall fairly easy to do. I just wanted to be pretty thorough and not skip anything. Have fun with the line work - yours doesn't have to be exactly like mine. Go crazy, have fun with it!
